Something strange has happenned to my power adapter on my iBook.
When I plug it in, it now flashes orange at me. Not random flashes, mind you, but timed flashes - like it wants to tell me something. But what? I cant find any other occurances of this on the web. oh, and it won't charge the battery like this.
If I jiggle it around a little and have a little luck, it then turns green. And it starts charging . I'm sure this only started happening two days ago.
I have reset the PMU and the PRAM with no result.
Three days ago, before this started, I upgraded from Panther to Tiger. After the upgrade all was well. Is this a coincidence? I have never heard of this bug before. Or did I damage something with the stress of upgrading? My iBook is kind of old (early 2003 type, 800MHz, 14.1, white shell, iBook 16Vram).
Maybe I did something to the logic board. The bottom of my iBook now often feels warmer than before. Also my iBook has a s/n which is in the affected range under Apple's logic board replacement program. But I have never had problems before and so didn't get it changed under the program!
Can anyone help me? Is my iBook starting to die
